    FTM/STM/TTM+: STM
    EDD / Weeks + Days: May 5 / 19W3D
    Baby is the size of a: peanut butter jar (are we talking sample size? Costco size?)
    Team blue/pink/green: finding out Thursday!!
    Upcoming Appointments: anatomy scan on Thursday
    How are you feeling?: I think being pregnant turned my cold into a sinus infection. I NEVER get sinus infections and I've had one for the last two weeks. :( My doctor said Sudafed is safe, so hopefully that can knock it out.
    Rants/Raves: DD is waking up at night when she has to go potty, which is great that she's listening to her body instead of peeing herself...but not great for DH and I's sleep schedule. :sleeping:
    Questions: Who else is still getting headaches? I haven't had a migraine since first tri, but on Sunday night I had an awful headache that I think was due to dehydration + sinus infection + too much cured meat  :#
    GTKY: What celebrity have you been told that you look like? Place a picture of them in a spoiler if you can find one! I've gotten a few different ones in the past, but the latest one I heard was that I look like Victoria Pedretti from You. I kind of see it, and my smile looks like hers at the right angle.

    FTM/STM/TTM+: 4TM
    EDD / Weeks + Days: May 12, 18w3d
    Baby is the size of a: bell pepper 
    Team blue/pink/green: blue
    Upcoming Appointments: Anatomy scan 12/19
    How are you feeling?: I FEEL LIKE POOP STILL! The nausea and fatigue. Why. I do have some days where I feel good and there has been an overall improvement but I am just frustrated because with my prior pregnancies I felt like 100 bucks after first tri. 
    Rants/Raves: see above about my rant. Rave: Typically I go crazy during this season filling our calenders with party after party, event after event. I have realized over time that its quantity over quality and really cut back and its working for us. I feel way less stressed and actually get to enjoy my kiddos. 
    Questions: none 
    GTKY: What celebrity have you been told that you look like? Place a picture of them in a spoiler if you can find one! I think I have a really common face because I have heard "you look like _______" with a lot of actresses, and usually I dont even know who they are. Lately its been the main character from the queen on netflix. Which I haven't watched but maybe can see the resemblance with the whole blue eyes, dark hair thing. 

    ETA: the crown not the queen Bahah 🙃

    Baby is the size of a: PB jar. I had the same questions as @hestia-is-wearie. What size jar are we talking about here??
    Team blue/pink/green: finding out
    Upcoming Appointments: anatomy scan 12/22 and it can’t come soon enough! I’m getting SO impatient
    How are you feeling?: Not bad, some days I’m full of energy (until like 8pm and then I crash lol) and other days I’m a blob.
    Rants/Raves: rant - I foolishly decided a year ago that I should paint all of our wood trim white, and it turns out it’s the most tedious thing ever so it’s taking me absolutely ages to do. I was trying to finish up the living room before we have guests this weekend but something about it made me feel lightheaded so I had to stop. I even cleared that it was ok to be doing with my doctor, so I’m just annoyed I only have primer on the last two doorways and that’s probably the way it’s going to be for quite a while. (My husband is a terrible painter and he hates it, so painting is decidedly my job.)
    Questions: none atm

    I’ve never been told I look like a celebrity I don’t think, but I get “have we met before?” And “you look just like my old English/history teacher” ALL the time. Familiar face in a stereotypical word nerd way I guess!  :D

    Questions: nope
    GTKY: What celebrity have you been told that you look like? Place a picture of them in a spoiler if you can find one! I’ve been told Judy Greer, which was very flattering, but I’m not convinced I actually look like her so much as give off best friend in a rom com energy. 😅

But in high school, at summer camp, I always got told I looked like Katerine Heigel, they called me Izzy Stevens ( I think that's who she was in Grey's Anatomy) but I don't see it.

    @megh061816 green is for those waiting to find out until baby is born! We've had a few long road trips/flights when pregnant. I always take lots of breaks when driving to walk around. Drink lots of water. Wear compression socks.
